BarrelsPlus

The download link is for Minecraft version 1.15.x and 1.14.x.

Description
BarrelsPlus gives barrels one extra feature: they hold onto their contents when broken. Any containers inside the barrel that are not empty will drop out, however. In essence, the plugin makes barrels portable.

In my opinion, this ability comes way too late in the game with Shulker Boxes. I wanted to make my mining and exploring trips more enjoyable by being able to carry more stuff, much earlier in the game. This is especially true with all of the new items that have been added to the game, lately.

Additional Info
This is a lightweight plugin with no dependencies.

• Custom names are preserved on the barrels.
• Players can be restricted from using this ability by taking away the permission node barrelsplus.*
• Barrels cannot be placed in the fuel slot of furnaces.
• There are no commands or configurations for this plugin.
• Shulker boxes are able to carry barrels, keeping their usefulness proportionately higher ^^ (barrels cannot hold onto used containers)

I am considering additional features to go along with this— perhaps something to make barrels even cooler! This will likely take on the form of an entirely new plugin. Right now, however, I do not have plans to make it.

Let me know what you think / if you enjoy this plugin!
